A Queen In the Peasant

If I were a peasant girl,
   ...would you over look it?

If I were a queen with elegance,
 ..would you love me more?

  If I were a peasant girl,
    ...would you love me more?

 If I were a queen in a peasants body,
  ...would you recognize my love?

A nice write! It challenges one to look deeper and not judge as we do. Well done! N :)

A vital challenge to those that should know the answers to these questions already. Yes, it is absolutely vital that we look beyond ones' skin. Very nice job, Crista!
